I feel this overstepping your authority. Another left scheme to penalize the people trying to be responsible and not rely on our Government
Can the people have anything without your hands being in the pot????
There's no sound reason to disallow investors from putting their money towards crypto and futures. Treat it the way every other asset us treated and let the free market decide.
Investors should invest in what they want to invest in. They know the risks. It's simple. Especially in index ETF's
Put the money back in social security that you took out an leave my investments alone. And if you havent payed into ss you shouldnt be getting a check. !!
I oppose limitations on my ability to buy the Funds of my choosing
I already despise the Jobs Act for limiting investing, and I am concerned with the further use of limiting who can invest based on net worth (or income).
Investing is a risk, of various levels, but it should not be relegated to only the wealthy, or middle class. Else, it is easier to be stuck at low income when a savings account does not even keep up with inflation. The concept of nanny-state laws such as this also takes away the freedom the country was founded on. Freedom, not it's polar opposite, security.
I adamantly oppose elimination of leveraged and inverse funds
I think its ridiculous FINRA is contemplating restricting access to leveraged funds, I have been investing in them for 14 years. They have been a valuable tool, people should be able to make choices for themselves, we dont need to be protected by the government.
